Effect of ozone pretreatment on alkali cleaning of alumina fouled with bovine serum albumin

Pretreatment of alumina particles fouled with bovine serum albumin (BSA) by 0.3% (v/v) gaseous ozone markedly accelerated the removal of BSA during alkali cleaning through partial decomposition of the BSA molecule. The results suggest that ozone pretreatment can reduce the NaOH concentration require...

Zusammenfassung:Pretreatment of alumina particles fouled with bovine serum albumin (BSA) by 0.3% (v/v) gaseous ozone markedly accelerated the removal of BSA during alkali cleaning through partial decomposition of the BSA molecule. The results suggest that ozone pretreatment can reduce the NaOH concentration required for adequate alkali cleaning by at least one order of magnitude.
